QUOTE(brotan @ Jul 3 2012, 11:16 AM) got it. will pay attention to this. btw, there is 1 dude said ... Problem rectified. It was the "one way valve" that faulty...Oil drained through this valve, causing starvation of VVT.means he found the issue or he solved it? and is that your car? Ya, they rectified, good for one month.. Now, the problem is back again..  Felt like Proton use owner to do Beta test on our M'sian road..

QUOTE(Turbocrazy @ Jul 3 2012, 11:10 AM) Brotan dude, watch this, you'll be able to understand (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxmV8Qy805s) Well, I do learned to delay start engine, even wait until airbag light off from day one i received my car.. My real worry is, those valves that u have mention, it has been changed.. People likes to talk abt 1 badge is like this la.. we are the white mouse la.. I think my EB cfe is more like R&D stage..  OMG.. now i'm turning into proton basher..  What to do bro...this are new engine...what to do outside also cannot...no spare part..aiyaa...hopefully it will be settle...now preve also face same problem i giving them time and try to be positive...

I do had the same ride as yours (Unser 1.8) before, tis baby had serving me 7 years (clock 245k km) b4 I decided to sell it off. Maybe I'm too optimistic, comparing Toyota & Proton.. All that I remembered I replaced for this unser is a piece of rubber tube.. But again, comparison on the ride, EB is so much comfortable..  Wonder why don't they juz dump in the mivec 2.0 engine???

Agree ... I bought the Unser in 2001, beside regular oil change what I can remember is patching up the radiator twice for small leak and a minor repair on throttle body to fix rought engine. Other than that the baby is trouble free even I abuse it kaw ...kaw .... Push RPM close to red line everytime climbing hill on the way back to Kelantan from Penang. It still serve me well till today, tu sayang nak let go even after getting the EB.

QUOTE(brotan @ Jul 3 2012, 03:15 PM) i thought unser super under power? Lets put this way Unser is having 94hp and 155Nm of torque compare to 138hb and 210Nm for EB. So it is a big different compare to EB. I'm satisfied with Unser just that I always having mental torture if need to drive for long distance, reason being I cannot drive slower than 130km/h for long hours .... else I'll fall asleep after 1hr driving. And to drive Unser above 130km/hr is very tiring because of the loud engine noise and slow pickup from 120km - 140km. And of course EB is few level up comfort wise

Innova was on my list ......but since I don't really need just another car I keep waiting for the right MPV with good value for money that meet my spec. Innova offering is not good enoug to make me change to another car. When Exora CFE came out it was never in my list either (I do not trust Proton Quality) but my friend push me to test drive the car. After the test drive I kena racun already. THis is the car that I need - people mover, sexy look, aircond all round, good power, not too big for daily use, RM90 road tax, dvd player, sport rim, bla...blaa...bla ... and for 80k. So here I am stuck with EB ...... but again so far I'm happy with my EB, hope it stays that way for long time to come
